President Trump said that pro-Palestine protestors were given a free run in the country, while protests by patriots are ‘systematically shut down.’
Senators Tom Cotton (R-Ark.) and Josh Hawley (R-Mo.) asked President Joe Biden to deploy the National Guard to Columbia University in New York City to protect Jewish students amid vehement pro-Palestine and anti-Israel demonstrations on campus.
“For nine years, many liberals have fantasized that Trump is Hitler and their brave ‘Resistance’ proves how they would’ve acted in Germany in the 1930s. In reality, nascent pogroms have broken out across America’s campuses and these very same liberals sit silently or even defend the mobs. Which actually tells you how they would’ve acted in Germany in the 1930s,” Sen. Cotton wrote.
“Why are Palestinian protesters, and even rioters, allowed to roam the Cities, scream, shout, sit, block traffic, enter buildings, not get permits, and basically do whatever they want including threatening Supreme Court Justices right in front of their homes, and yet people who truly LOVE our Country, and want to MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN, are not allowed to ‘Peacefully Protest,’ and are rudely and systematically shut down and ushered off to far away ‘holding areas,’ essentially denying them their Constitutional Rights,” he wrote.
“America-Loving Protesters should be allowed to protest at the front steps of Courthouses, all over the Country, just like it is allowed for those who are destroying our Country on the Radical Left, a two-tiered system of justice. Free Speech and Assembly has been ‘CHILLED’ for USA SUPPORTERS.”
Canceling Classes
Beginning Monday, Columbia University canceled in-person classes for the remaining spring semester, according to multiple reports.
“The gross antisemitism being displayed against Jewish students at Columbia University is horrific, unacceptable, and the reason I introduced legislation to strip federal funding from colleges that blatantly allow antisemitism and fail to hold those responsible accountable,” she said.
“Universities have a responsibility to protect their students from discrimination, harassment, and violence. President Shafik has failed to do this and should immediately resign.”
He asked the agencies to hold such institutions accountable and demanded canceling “the visa of any foreign student who is championing Hamas.”
Following the Oct. 7 Hamas massacre of Israelis, more than 100 faculty members signed a letter defending the attack as “just one salvo in an ongoing war between an occupying state and the people it occupies, or as an occupied people exercising a right to resist,” ADL noted.
“Every campus should get an A—that’s not grade inflation, that’s the minimum that every group on every campus expects. Like all students, Jewish students deserve to feel safe and supported on campus. They deserve a learning environment free from antisemitism and hate,” ADL CEO Jonathan Greenblatt said.
“But that hasn’t been the experience with antisemitism running rampant on campus since even before October 7. At a time when antisemitic incidents on campus are at historic levels, administrators need to adopt new policies to address this scourge and have the willingness to enforce existing codes of conduct to ensure all students are safe.”
